Life and beyond
From the very beginning, this life force inside of us so small and so fragile makes us often feel like a once crumpled piece of paper finally ready to write a story. A blank slate is presented, one so precious and unable to unfold on its own.

The Sun will Shine Again
As you hold your children tight in this world full of violence in chaos, as you try to find the rainbow after the storm of tears that has befell this country, I stand with you I pray with you and I hope you know that your not alone in the heaviness you carry.

Life and its Mysteries
Life is an interesting journey,one that makes many turns and there are many twists. It will make you strong, but first it will daunt you, it will break you. It will be filled with many beautiful moments. It will bring people to you who you think you will love for a life time, but alas, it may be fleeting. What a mystery life can be to present such beautiful enchanting dream like moments with a person who can be so temporary in your life. I've learned if anything that some people are lessons, some are angels meant to come in our life and impact us in beautiful ways and some friendships are just meant to last a life time.

The Forest
As a young wild heart, children need guidance, love, acceptance. They need security, they need to know they come first. I'm sure being a child feels no different than being lost in a forrest with no map or no direction, the emotions making them feel like they are spinning in circles endlessly trying to find a calm peace. To them you are that place.

A Mothers Journey
From the moment as mothers when we realize we are forming a human life we feel so many emotions: feelings of uncertainty, love, worry and the biggest one, fear. Coming from a difficult upbringing the fear of inadequacy and "Will I be a good mother" often strikes a panic in me and then a flood of sobbing. Discipling a child, I'm always thinking "Will he hate me? Am I traumatizing him?" and often I hear the echoes of my mothers voice as I yell "No!" or "Don't do that!" I've gotten to points that I've deeply regretted out of frustration but the heart of a mother is always yearning to understand our children deeper, to love them more and in ways better than we even knew as children. It doesn't come from a place of wanting to be better than our parents (necessarily) but wanting to be the parent our children deserve.

Being One with Your Soul
There should be no limits to which you feel that care is not deserved, no bounds to which you must think of what you must do to deserve it. Self love, is not "I feel strong today, I am worthy today" it is, "I feel weak today, what is it I must do to feel strong again." We live in such an achievement based society that we are naturally more geared to feel that way and instead of us putting away our notions of egotism to conform to the image society wants, we need to see the image in the mirror as what we want. To be content with yourself fully is part of self love. It is not, "I must be better and more like them and then I will be happy." It is knowing that despite the quirks and supposed flaws you are worth loving and nurturing for the simple fact that you are human and you are alive.
